This afternoon I got a number from an HB8. Unbeknownst to me, a former target (and former Day 2 +Day 3) was sitting right next to me the whole time.

Her text: "that was hilarious, you have that routine down".

I responded with some C &F to change the frame as if she was jealous, which may have worked.

Later today I was gaming a 7, when the HB8 from above came over and said hello! I must have had the most guilty look on my face because she absolutely knew what was going on.

Busted twice in one afternoon!

I know keeping a strong frame of you being a social person is important but are there any ways to assuage this ackward situation?

By this I can assume you ran the exact same routine on both the others? Which is probably why you got caught, if you do use openers and the such make sure you transition into different DHV stories or push/pulls etc. Im not sure what style of game you run but by increasing the number of different routines you use this problem should be avoided.

To her text a reply of something like

'Well it worked on you so thought id give it another shout'
or
' Hey, I didnt have you down to be the jealous type '

Both Ive seen work depending on how you have been running it.
